About this gig

Why work with me?

I'm a Senior Backend Engineer with 7+ years of hands-on experience building and maintaining production-grade web applications. I specialize in PHP ecosystems Symfony, API Platform, Laravel, Lumen, and CodeIgniter and I've worked on everything from greenfield builds to complex legacy migrations.

Here's what I bring to your project:

  • Backend expertise clean architecture, REST API design, and scalable service development
  • Database proficiency PostgreSQL and MySQL, including schema design and query optimization
  • DevOps fluency CI/CD pipelines on GitHub Actions and CircleCI, Docker-based environments
  • Reliability built in payment integrations, security hardening, performance optimization, and automated testing are part of how I work, not afterthoughts
  • Version control collaborative Git workflows across distributed teams

Beyond the technical side, I deliver on time, communicate clearly throughout the project, and write code that's maintainable long after the engagement ends.

If you're looking for someone who takes ownership and treats your project like it matters let's talk.
